Fox News- trump doesn't bow to the saudis as Obama appeared to do (i can't find this picture on their site that's weird.)

Just to be clear, I don't care who bowed to who at all. This isn't trump criticism. I'm just point out the ridiculousness of Fox News a) caring b) ignoring the time he did bow.

I do get that he's bowing to receive an award or whatever... but here's the thing... they could just not say anything at all. There's always that. But that "Obama bowed" article was written like a week ago and damn it to hell they were gonna print it no matter what happened.

Remember how distraughtFox "News" America was when Obama didn't place his hand over his heart for the National Anthem? Jesus, they and their viewers went apoplectic because of it. But when Donnie didn't, and Melania nudged him to remind him, the Right thought it was kind of funny.
And by the way, it was funny, but for the Obama critics to be such hypocrites -- yet again -- is why my side has lost so much tolerance for that blather.

Who went apoplectic? 1 or 2 people that TV fixated on. Just as they fixate on the violent protesters.

Those people are a minority. You accept that on the left, you don't on the right. Bias.

Pence is the Vice President. Did Trump die? Why are we having this conversation.

He's also qualified to pray everyone into heterosexual sex. I often pray for it nightly myself. And, like Pence, I'm bat shit crazy.

It's a stupid conversation anyway. "Do I really want pence?" Yes. I heard someone put it this way... can't remember who.

Does this really belong in the media bias thread? It's a clearly marked opinion piece. We're still allowed to offer opinions, aren't we? Or is Donnie moving to ban them, too?

I actually didn't see your post. Did it mention how the President never used to shake hands? I could be wrong on this, but I think he only started when he declared his candidacy. I think not shaking hands is the better, healthier idea.

What's your point goose? Hey! I have googles. I looked up those two articles. Here's the first lines of each.

First one.

The views expressed in this commentary are their own (referring to the authors. I cut out a bunch of mumbo jumbo about the authors backgrounds.)

Second one.

The views expressed in this commentary are solely those of the author.(again, I cut out some author details for you to get to the point.

So are you suggesting that CNN is too fair balanced giving an outlet for different opinions and should only work to serve their own political interests everytime like their competitors, I don't want to name names so let's just make one up, Box Blues? That's very interesting goose. I disagree. But you're welcome to your opinion.

Except the top and bottom stories are opinion pieces which frankly aren't opposing views (are the by the same columnist? And the middle story is a fact based news story. Maybe if the third story uses data it's fact based opinion.

That's the stuff the knuckle drafters (trumps 40%'ers) will read and are just too ignorant to understand the difference between them. Goose probably does, but he posts enough of that stuff that maybe he doesn't. I'm beginning to wonder.

Goose is well read, but I'm at the point where I honestly believe he doesn't understand the difference in opinion vs. reporting. I know we've pointed it out a few times, but he keeps posting articles like that. There's a point where you have to say, "know what, the guy really doesn't get it".

Im of the opinion that he's still in the "we've gotta get these libtards!" Type of mindset, but it's a whole hell of a lot harder when a) your side controls everything now and b) your side, despite controlling everything, has accomplished very little that can be defended and has constant scandal. So, to get the libtards, they gotta dig deeper than normal and a lot of the time it leads to thoughts that aren't very well thought out.

With all the furor over the (non) release of Trump's tax returns how many of you knew this?

Because the Senate’s disclosure standards are comfortably loose, we know much less about our junior senator’s finances than we would if he, say, released his tax returns.

But he doesn’t do that. During his 2016 presidential campaign, Sanders released only a summary of his 2014 tax return.

So Bernie for the people Sanders didn't release a tax return either. Where was the wall to wall coverage of this???

Are we moving the the goalposts again Goose? You specifically quoted something about his 2014 tax "summary" - a lie - I produced his 2014 tax return. He's not a candidate, nor the president. He did what he said he would do. Unlike Trump, who is the President.

Your false equivalency is pathetic.

by **Travis of the Cosmos** Mon Jun 05, 2017 11:57 am

Yeah, his 2015 return would have been due by 4-15-16, which he probably extended on account of being busy running for president, so then due 10-15-16, at which point he was no longer running for president and had no reason to release them. I doubt you'd find too much crazy stuff on there, but again, it was over by then.
